Mushroom Masala | Dry Mushroom Curry

Mushroom Masala | Dry Mushroom Curry is a simple yet delicious curry which I made with minimum ingredients.  Mushroom always comes handy to make any meal yummy in no time. Also it has loads of protein and is a wonderful protein supplement for vegetarians. For non vegetarians, it is a good alternative since its taste is very close to non-veg items. So, this is a recipe everyone can enjoy trying at home.
